Art & Culture Find: Delfina Foundation London

Discover international creative dialogue in the heart of London at one of the world’s leading independent arts foundations. Delfina Foundation has been promoting artistic exchange and collaboration since 2007, focusing on emerging talent from the Greater Middle East and North Africa.

From an Edwardian townhouse in the capital’s Victoria neighbourhood, the foundation provides a diverse public programme of under-represented contemporary art practices and themes through artist residencies and exhibitions. Several multi-disciplinary spaces form galleries and host workshops and events that provide a unique calendar of cultural expression rarely able to participate in the Western art world.

Look out for scheduled Open Studios throughout the year when resident artists share their practice and works-in-progress from their residency experience.
